Super excited to play some Hey Mercedes songs this weekend. Any requests?

(Disclaimer: the setlist has already been decided upon and neatly printed out.)

Hi! No Braid merch but Hey Mercedes stuff for sure. I’m excited too!

What do you think a FUGAZI bat signal would look like?

Thank you for coming! Yes, any requests need to come at least 10 days prior, in writing.

Cool! Just to be clear, you’re starting at 5:30 or the show starts at 5:30? Weirdly enough I’m passing thru that night with family…Hope to make it!

LOUISVILLE! I’m going to be playing a set tomorrow at @guestroomrecordsky.bsky.social at 5:30pm and I hope you can make it. Doing some Smiths songs too, just in case you can’t stand my songs. See you there!

Listen I know I share a birthday with one of the most infamous humans on the planet, and I know it’s No Kings Day but come on folks he’s not THAT bad.

I am, of course, talking about…

“Pro”-Tip: as soon as you record some parts that sound cool together, name it. Name the song. Doesn’t have to be final. Just don’t give it a number or a date. Name it something. Anything.

I dunno, maybe subscribe to my YouTube. I’m slowly making all the unlisted stuff public. Literally hundreds of unfinished demos. Literally. Hundreds. What good are they all sitting on hard drives? m.youtube.com/c/bobnanna

I filmed a little vid talking about my Patreon (becoming pay anything, get everything), my podcast (changing up format), and the album I’m working on (featuring lyrics from old notebooks). There’s also a cat. Enjoy!

You know, I’m getting kind of emotional (who woulda thought) thinking about the VERY FIRST IN EXISTENCE punk rock legends I’ve had the absolute honor and pleasure to see and/or meet. I’m so glad I was here for it.

It wasn’t just a guy with a curly mustache and a guitar I swear.

I actually just walked right by him so I said hi I’m a fan.

Greg Norton from Husker Du is here at the airport. I’d like to go say hi but… I’m not going to.

When I saw Chicago I thought man I hope it’s one of the Smoking Popes.

“Today I’m slightly / less unsightly / and I cannot move / with 3 cats on me” is a true to life lyric I just wrote for a new song.

I’m happy with the lyrics too. “Rumble young musicians” is something that Bruce Springsteen said in a SXSW keynote. Or at least that’s how I remember it.

Love this song! The name comes from a funny convo we had while recording No Coast regarding the popularity of songs that are digitally quantized into things like pro tools.

10 years since we released this Braid 7" 🤯 originally made for Record Store Day 2015, ‘Kids Get Grids’ features an original track by the same name alongside a Broken Hearts Are Blue cover, both recorded mixed + produced by Will Yip. Artwork by Andy Mueller.

I started working on a new album and I’m sourcing 98% of the lyrics from old notebooks pre-2005. What the hell was I even talking about?

And lastly, I’m playing a free show tomorrow night at Tone Deaf Records. A brand new song and a new cover I’m working out are part of the set. Join me!
